When the mask slips off the Democrats, like Chicago Democrat Danny Davis, they never have to worry about being held accountable because the media never covers it. In the case of Danny Davis, he praised Louis Farrkkah,, the rabid anti-Semite last week and brought up the antisemitic “Jewish Question” which goex back to the 1860’s. If you look up “The Jewish Question” on Wikipedia, they claim The “Jewish Question” has been used by white nationalists, members of the alt-right, and neo-Nazis. I guess they missed the memo on Danny Davis and Louis farrkkahn.

The Anti-Defamation League on Sunday slammed Rep. Danny Davis, an Illinois Democrat, for praising anti-Semitic preacher and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan as an “outstanding human being.”
“It is unfortunate that the congressman apparently can’t muster up the courage to denounce Farrakhan’s blatant anti-Semitism and instead chose to praise him,” an ADL spokesman told JTA.Davis lauded Farrakhan as “an outstanding human being who commands a following of individuals who are learned and articulate,” according to an interview published in The Daily Caller.
In his defense, Davis said that his remarks were misunderstood and asked the ADL for more information regarding Farrakhan’s anti-Semitism. The ADL then provided Davis with a litany of Farrakhan’s vicious verbal attacks on Jews over the decades.
In a more recent interview with the Daily Caller, Davis dismissed the allegations of anti-Semitism.
“I know Farrakhan, been knowing him for years and years and years and years and years, and every once in a while some writer or somebody will I guess try to think of something to say about Farrakhan, but nah, my world is so much bigger than any of that,” he said.
“We are deeply disappointed with Congressman Davis’s statements about Farrakhan, an avowed anti-Semite who leads a group that traffics in hate not just towards Jews but also the LGBTQ community,” the ADL spokesman stated. “Hate should not be difficult to denounce. Once again we’re calling on the congressman to denounce anti-Semitism and all forms of hate.”
Last week, Farrakhan delivered a particularly rancorous anti-Semitic attack on Jews at the 2018 Saviour’s Day event in Chicago, calling Jews members of the “Synagogue of Satan” and claiming that Jesus called the Jews “the children of the devil” and “when you want something in this world, the Jew holds the door.”
